let me ask you about tax reform. you told politico last week that a, quote, a balanced approach to replacing the sequester with spending cuts and revenue should accelerate tax reform, and i believe it's fully possible this year if we work on a bipartisan basis, unquote. how does that square, sir, with the people who say that tax reform is going to lose out because of scheduling, the need to deal with the debt ceiling, the need to deal with the looming she quester and the house republicans' concern that if they do anything on tax reform, that they may leave themselves up to the senate not to take action, and, therefore, they've taken an unpopular vote for no reason. why are you optimistic on tax reform? >> first of all, we have to resolve this debt can crisis in terms of -- this debt crisis in terms of sequestration and in terms of the full faith and credit of the u.s. in the next six weeks. we aren't going to accomplish tax reform in the next six weeks. so we have a deadline that i think cannot basically be moved for

this is a big tax cut. so i say to you in terms of what has to happen next, i think it's going to require the revenue side of the equation and the spending side of equation to be addressed. let me just conclude by saying this. how do we get out of this in the current circumstance? the president said he's not going to negotiate on the debt limit. republicans say they will not vote for an extension of the debt limit unless they get substantial additional cuts in spending. i think judd is absolutely right. we have another dynamic at work here, and that is the sequestered. $1.2 trillion of across the board spending cuts, having defense, half in nondefense. republicans don't like it, democrats don't like it. that creates an opportunity. there's also the question of how long do you extend the debt limit. i think it would be incredibly foolish to renege on the debt of the united states. it would be enormous consequences. that is a losing proposition for everyone. but how long we extend the debt limit, that is open

on the income tax and less reliance on the sales tax. [applause] in my budget, in my budget i will propose that we cut the sales tax from the current rate of 6.25% to 4.5% and dedicate all of the proceeds to a public works fund. that fund will support the transportation plan i have laid out both our existing responsibility and the necessary expansion project. as well as the school building fund, and other public infrastructure. under my plan, sales tax proceeds would be off limits for any other purpose. to support our education initiative, my budget will propose that we increase the income tax by 1 percentage point to 6 % 25% to make that increase fair to all according to their ability to pay. i will propose that we double the personal exemptions for every taxpayer, and eliminate a number of itemized dedeductions. making those changes gives us a tax code that is simpler and fairer. let me add that with these changes are sales, income, and business taxes will be comparable to and other states in the region beyond with which we compete. th
